We have something of yours. It’s the family’s Christmas Tree. Come find it among acres of sweet fragrance and the familiar imagery of a country Holiday. Once again we have plenty of everything for everybody. Come out and take your time. Let the fun and fond memories stir up your spirit.
We will be operating out of the Boss Road Extension location again this year. In addition our Warner Road North location will be opened. The Warner Road farm has our Arizona Cork Bark Firs. This is a unique tree that looks spectacular at Christmas. For those using GPS the Boss Road Extension site can be located at 3700 Boss Road Extension. The Warner Road North location can be found at 3773 Warner Road. Both addresses are in Marion NY 14505.
Tree Varieties Available
Douglas Fir - is a softer, more fragrant variety of tree. The branches are flexible giving a more spreading and drooping look. The needles are dark green or blue green in color and usually 1 to 1 ½ inches long with good retention. They have a sweet fragrance that is often used in holiday potpourri scents.
Fraser Fir - The combination of form, needle retention, dark blue-green color, pleasant scent and excellent shipping characteristics has led to Fraser fir being the most popular Christmas tree species. Needles are soft and short with a silver-blue under hue. Branching is moderately stiff. Needle retention is excellent.
Balsam Fir - Needles are soft, short and dark-green to bluish in appearance. Branches are moderately stiff with an attractive arrangement. Needle retention is fair but retains its pleasing fragrance
White Pine - Needles are soft, long, flexible and bluish-green to silver green in color and are regularly arranged in bundles of five. Branches are very flexible. Needle retention is good to excellent. White pine has very little aroma, but, conversely, is reported to result in fewer allergic reactions than do some of the more aromatic species.
Colorado Blue Spruce - is finding increasing popularity as a Christmas tree as a result of its symmetrical form and attractive blue foliage. Short needles circle the entire branch and are very sharp to the touch. Aroma is pungent and branches are very stiff. It is best to setup your Blue Spruce as a cut Christmas tree later in the Season (preferably after Dec. 1st) as needle retention is fair.
